The Ghana Meteorological Agency (GMet) has forecast continued rainfall activity across parts of the country, warning that rain-bearing clouds over the southeastern corridor are expected to persist and gradually move westward, bringing more thunderstorms and showers to southwestern Ghana later in the day.

In its afternoon weather update issued at 11:00 UTC on Monday, June 29, 2026, the agency said the cloud system is likely to generate thunderstorms and rainfall of varying intensities across affected areas as the day progresses.

“As the day progresses, these clouds are expected to spread westward, bringing thunderstorms or rain to the southwestern parts of the country from this afternoon into the evening,” GMet said.

For northern Ghana, the agency indicated that residents can expect periods of sunshine, although isolated thunderstorms and rainfall are also likely in parts of the northern sector from late afternoon into the evening.

The latest forecast follows hours of heavy rain earlier in the day, which caused widespread flooding in Accra and surrounding communities, disrupting transport and economic activities.

As a result of the flooding, the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) and the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) temporarily shut down power supply from the Mallam and Achimota primary substations as a precautionary measure.

The Ghana School of Law also rescheduled examinations originally planned for Monday to Tuesday due to the adverse weather conditions.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of the Interior has advised the public to avoid unnecessary movement and stay in safe locations, while the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) has deployed emergency response teams to affected areas.

GMet urged residents to remain vigilant, cautioning that continued rainfall could worsen flooding conditions, particularly in low-lying and flood-prone areas.

It also advised the public to contact emergency services where necessary, including the Ghana Police Service on 18555 or 112, the Ghana National Fire Service on 192, and NADMO on 112.
